Museum Archive: Vintage Acme K.O. Wobbler, 3/4oz Yellow / Green / Nickel fishing spoon #4239

Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, this heavy-gauge spoon features a distinct teardrop profile designed for casting or trolling. One side of the metal body is finished in a bright yellow and green gradient, while the reverse side reveals a polished nickel surface clearly stamped with the 'K.O. WOBBLER' name. At 3/4 oz (21 g), the lure possesses significant density to reach deeper water columns effectively. The hardware is comprised of a robust nickel-finished treble hook and a strong split ring, typical of Acme’s high-quality USA manufacturing standards from this era. This specimen, assigned product code 4239, is in 4/5 condition, showing small areas of paint loss on the colored face that expose the underlying metal. Technical specifications from the manufacturer note that this model is engineered to produce specific sounds during retrieval to attract various predatory species.
